4:01 am
international news life from moscow this is on she was nice and was start with breaking news turkey's retaliation against syria isn't ending anytime soon and doing anytime soon i should say as the country's military has launched a fresh our series tries against the war torn state has earlier fired over the border in response to that shelling from the syrian side which killed five turkish civilians and as she is middle east correspondent paula c.n.r. reports the nato member state is now close to starting a ground invasion. into the early hours of thursday morning turkey launched military fire against syrian targets this follows overnight operations in which the turkey military continued to fire on to the syrian side now the whole incident was spock when a mortar bomb was fired from syria into turkey territory it hit
4:02 am
a residential building killing five members of the same family and injuring another for a team we don't yet have clear information as to who fired the most when we don't have exact information as to the extent of the turkish retaliate freak accidents but certainly this is intensifying and the situation on the ground we almost didn't reports that a number of syrians have been killed by the turkish operations and what they do expect later today for this day is take parliament overlake the decision whether or not to if wise cross border operations in the area if indeed they give this the nod what we will see is that the turkish military can operate freely now in the past the turkish military has moved into more than iraq to root out of there her dish militants and what some people are noticing is a parallel action where you almost see now that syria is moving into countries to deal with rebel fighters there turkey certain wasted no time in going on that offensive immediately contacted nato as well as the united nations of course this
4:03 am
abominable act and has urged the international community for immediate action now on wednesday night an emergency meeting of nato was held in brussels the syrians did issue an apology they offered their condolences to the family and both sides have called for restraint at the same time we do expect that the turkish call for the united nations security council to meet immediately will be dealt with today what we're hearing from the turkish is that he needs to be immediate and urgent action to what they call syrian aggression so the situation on the ground quite fluid and remains to see to be seen what happens in the coming hours. we're serious to launch in a civil war the government says it's investigating the origins of the deadly attack on the turkish village but some experts in turkey thing the incident plays into the hands of some regional figures who are eager to see ankara drawn into conflict with syria. we only know that the mortars been fired across the border we don't know
4:04 am
what the deliberately or accidentally we don't even know who fired it there's been no proof that it was the syrian army that shot it could be a provocation i mean no really no there's been a steady increase intentional on that border for a long long period of time and. you know there's a table of taking positions on the situation and we also there are very there are many there are several governments which are anxious for taking the kind of take this kind of action for scholars one saudi arabia is another so there will be weighing up the costs and the benefits tomorrow to turkey. kind of policy on syria is not popular in this country is drawing domestic opposition to the government's line on syria so i think that they see for the government to kind of succumb to temptation perhaps. and kind of take part in sometimes is of course the border to great no flaws would be extremely unpopular inside. they share your fire with a turkey syria border comes in the wake of a spate of terror attacks ripping through the conflict torn country's largest city
4:05 am
around forty people have been reported killed and many more injured after a series a car bomb explosions in central aleppo that take place in a government controlled area and apparently targeted and nearby military and administration buildings an al qaeda linked rebel group has claimed responsibility for the time which has become increasingly frequent across syria and also he managed to discuss the ongoing situation with iraq a prime minister nouri al maliki the president around the approval of the rebels by some international plans instigates to move on and hampers peace efforts up our. dialogue will definitely take place as we're concerned about the syrian problem first of all the split in syria affects us the ongoing situation has repercussions on iraq we will discuss these issues with russia in order to decide what we have to do to make the existing initiatives that is the first arab league. guidelines on how to leave. to prove that a military approach is. to the government as well as the opposition should be cut
4:06 am
off we wanted to work unlike those perverted decisions approved during the foreign ministers meeting unfortunately a number of countries have been taken in these recommendations and keep supplying syria with weapons which worsens the situation. and there's more the syrian civil war is sending to iraq and elsewhere as well you can also find analysis on fast times reports from syria and its neighbors states and share your views on the turmoil. us authorities have accused a group of employees of an electronics company over secretly working for moscow the five headed by a us born businessman has allegedly funneled fifty million dollars worth of cutting edge military hardware out of the country to russia. brings us the details from new york. according to the u.s. justice department alexander for schenk oh they say was operating
4:07 am

4:08 am
again we need to underscore here that what the u.s. justice department is saying is that these goods were being exported without notifying the u.s. government or the department of commerce this story is breaking right now this big russian you know alleged russian spy network being stung by the f.b.i. it's breaking on the same day that the first u.s. presidential debates take place our viewers may remember that mitt romney the republican candidate has referred to russia as america's number one enemy and also according to published reports the houston f.b.i. agent in charge of this alleged sting referred to russia as a hostile country that is seeking to prove improve its defense capabilities and to modernize their weapon system at the expense of u.s. taxpayers so clearly there's a lot of allegations flying here harsh rhetoric and this latest spy scandal between america and russia came at a very opportune time the eve of the u.s.

4:15 am
world jobs taxes and health care or close to the hearts of americans caught in stagnant economic times but the debate on a more personal time would be counted as deriving each other's policy proposals as an irony stick or in fact actually one such incident saw romney accusing adama of risking national security let's kevin zeese director will they come home america group says that on defending its own is no distinction between the candidates they're a very liberal or you know president obama has been drawn commander in chief using his. drones and we can ever imagine george bush if you start wars in the in the country like libya where there was no un mandate no congressional. stand. even doing the same thing is they're both taking nothing on the table as far as attacking iran they both see russia as obama's and obama's also in circle china he's also increased their military presence the united states and. all these
4:16 am
military issues they're both of recipe for those of the us military empire and i don't see either one of them are cutting back the military. historian. this debate is an example of how limited america is out of actually something. unfortunately this debate is one reason why nowadays there are those who say that what we have in the end of states is not democracy but a mockery that is to say what happens then to states is that all the candidates of the left such as the green party are barred from this kind of presidential debate and as a result the kinds of policies that president obama has been acting that are subject to withering criticism from the left for example bailing out the banks but not bailing out homeowners for example this war against libya they are not able to be criticized adequately by his opponent mr romney and as a result you have
4:17 am
a very very tepid debate that takes place how can you have a realistic debate about the problems that this country faces the many problems that this country faces because analysis and critique from the left are basically excluded basically this debate comes down in many ways to a choice between tweedle dum and tweedle dee. they. expected to vote through any a ten billion euro increase in brussels funding for next year the proposal coming in to reject austerity in the euro zone has caused widespread outcry across the union and while that was hit countries greece international lenders are now struggling to negotiate a fresh consequent cage and despite a financial strain the greek government does tell planning to build a multi million euro formula one racing truck investment adviser patrick young says the timing couldn't be wise. you know the troika these people who come along and demand cuts they've been coming for the last several years every time they go away
4:18 am
they think they've got a deal in the greek side people to stick to it so this time around everybody's finally got to the point where they realize well they might make a deal that might not make it do it but actually we've got all these facts coming along ridiculous pieces of information grown priest speaking bilton the greek hinterlands with money the truth is the greek government it's just all control just . it is the ultimate objective. and of course one racing is far from the concerns of most ordinary greeks two years of constant taxes have traffic increased the number of families who can't even afford to raise their children on trees piece on to reports now on a charity trying to shield young people from the crisis. too young to understand why but on the front line of the debt crisis rampant unemployment in greece and the slashing of social benefits has left their parents with money to provide even their most basic of needs for may seem unthinkable has happened these children being
4:19 am
taken into care. for during the past two years we have seen a large rise in the number of children coming to us because their families can't support them because taxes and prices have risen things like food clothing schooling and housing have become too expensive. before the financial crisis this children's village which is run by the organization s.o.s. children usually looked after kids who'd been the victims of abuse now they say almost all new cases are as a result of the debt crisis this center privately funded through donations is also feeling the pinch and. we've seen a significant drop off in donations people give what they can but that is getting less and worse and also we are taxed on what we receive making it more of a burden to buy things we need like fuel for heating. the charity says there's been a seventy percent increase in requests for help this children's village is home to
4:20 am
forty youngsters near to thessaloniki and it's operating at close to maximum capacity i met one mother who asked not to be identified because of the stigma attached she says she was forced to give up her young daughter after losing her job . it was a norful decision to have to make what could i do there was no money and no work i asked her if she thought they would ever be reunited as a family you know things are going from bad to worse here it could be ten years before greece is back beat s.o.s. children makes a point of trying to keep youngsters in contact with their biological parents for this family that means one emotional meeting once a month. organizations like this one are becoming increasingly important to help protect a generation of children ripped from their families due to greece's financial
4:21 am
failings. with the greek government facing having to make fresh of over ten billion euros the children's village expects to be receiving more pleas for help in the future for this mother and daughter the help they get allows them to appreciate the feeding moments they can spend together. greece. and let's not cross to our business just now marina last hour you mentioned that portugal is struggling as well and they just announced that there will be more seriously measures what's the government doing that well you know what the government is implements in higher taxes and that of course is called an outrage in fact the strike has been planned for the next months of all see how this develops when it comes to the european markets so we're seeing an upbeat sentiment and that's because we had a positive report coming out from the u.s. and vasser all are waiting to hear from the european central bank where they'll be meeting as well as on friday a u.s. jobs report coming up from the e.u.
4:22 am
us a lot of things to watch there when it comes to the russian markets here we've been seeing an upbeat sentiment as well partly due to the five that now they've gone into negative territory but they are more spoil it is the fact that oil prices have bounced back haven't sat there we know that capital outflow has been increasing every single month which is not encouraging for investors important to say that diamond producer so it's first half net profit large by thirty eight percent now have more companies in the second for us this take a look at the asian markets where they are now on their way out and five the nikkei is already close they're close higher by over half a percent and export as well providing extra support and boosts for japanese markets and then we had banks. in australia that sell off of asia there. and sees the euro still strengthen and against the u.s. dollar when it comes to the ruble it's still a mixed picture this hour it's good in against the u.s. dollar but using it to the euro and we do know that despite all the stimulus
4:23 am
measures by major economies we're still seeing the ball not being supported enough and we spoke to central banks. to find out what needs to be done to sit make sure that we see growth in the currency. of the so you know look go for a look at the freeze and we don't see it with refusing to see the logic of balances of the bumps in the you know for us all the moves into the markets with the snow off of her as she spoke with like the progress of the you know the ruble but it looks a bit over the what it was the president going to get the cone going to. be up to improve for you since zero zero balance of you know. the. same with russia one of the largest steel makers in the country has announced that will by an end direct control in the interest in their spots which is a russian producer of coking coal and its subsidiaries the deal could make the
4:24 am
largest producer of coking coal in the country and a company is currently valued at around five point three billion dollars and important to mention therefore there are markets there is that have this puzzled look on my face was because without pause the figures for the past couple of hours so one half of the graphics they're higher oil prices are definitely better than capital out. there you go for the best event ok coming up to rule but skidelsky economic historian i would waiting also professor about the failure was terrace he and how he been nations should be fun to do into the government's economic on this.

4:28 am
a professor of political economy and also the biographer of john maynard keynes widely considered to be the most influential economist of the twentieth century will be talking about what keynes could bring to today's economic crisis notes goodell's the first could you explain to me in layman's terms what the government is doing to mend the economy and why you think it's not working. well i don't think they're doing very much to mend the economy i think that their policies of made things worse the sad fact is that the british economy has been shrinking slowly almost for a year now rather like a very slowly leaking balloon and the government of been trying in one or two small ways to give it a bit of a stimulus but i think they're quite new initiatives and it's too early to say how much effect they'll have but in general i don't think they will have very
4:29 am
much effect and so i don't think at the moment they're doing anything very much to help because there's an awful lot of talk about prioritizing the economy and it's the main thing that we have to work on at the same time you say that not very much is being done at all one thing is that they're blaming everyone but themselves first of all it was it was the euro crisis then it was the high high commodity rise in commodity prices and so they claim that the policy of a stereo should bring about the recovery but that it's been derailed by these unfortunate x. shocks but the policy of a sterile. is basically wrong when there's a lack of private sector demand when banks aren't lending when businesses don't want to borrow when people are cutting down their spending because they want to reduce their debt when the government then adds to that sort of downward.
